BIG ANNIVERSARY UPDATE!!

It's been a very difficult year. The paralysis, which I am still recovering from, and the medical bankruptcy that followed. In spite of that progress was made, maybe not as much as I'd like, but look!

This tweet from a mutual got my optimization psychopathy going.

I made Nodes to combine functionality for better aesthetics, variety, & (hopefully) performance.

Details & Benchmark in reply!

It's been a lot of work to make Unreal Engine 5 do various "2D Retro Effects" but there's progress made.

This one is actually manipulating a Paper Tilemap layer in real time, not a solid texture.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

If Time is paused for any Actor that uses my #UnrealEngine5 Time Control system, all of their SFX also automatically pause.

I can put Actors into Time Groups. In this example the Parent Time Source for "Gameplay" is paused, so 'everything' pauses.

You can mark Macro nodes as *Development Only* but they STILL GET CALLED IN SHIPPING?!
